Dear Lord. Thank you for the
Honourable Mark Docherty. We pray that you would alert him to areas that need
his direct attention. May he have an uncanny ability to intuitively sense where
to focus his inquiry, and a capacity to ask just the right question to cut
through the haze and get to the heart of the matter. Give him a great summer
that is both refreshing and inspiring. Amen.

Mark was first elected to the Saskatchewan legislature as the MLA for Regina Coronation Park in 2011.In June 2014, he was appointed as Minister of Parks, Culture and Sport and Minister Responsible for the Provincial Capital Commission.
